TECHNICAL FIELD

Embodiments of the present invention relate to the communications field, and in particular, to a mobile service information display method, a mobile service information display apparatus, a mobile service information server, a mobile terminal, and a mobile service information system.

BACKGROUND

Mobile service information is service information displayed when a mobile terminal (such as a mobile phone or a tablet computer) accesses a mobile application or a mobile web page, and forms of mobile service information include multiple forms such as a picture, a text, a video, and a link.

In the conventional art, when selecting mobile service information to be displayed on a mobile terminal, a mobile service information server generally performs selection only according to location information of the mobile terminal at a current moment. A correspondence between location information and mobile service information is stored on a side of the mobile service information server in advance. The mobile service information server searches the correspondence between location information and mobile service information according to the obtained location information of the mobile terminal at the current moment, to determine corresponding mobile service information, and sends the determined mobile service information to the mobile terminal for display.

However, in many cases, mobile service information that is to be displayed on a mobile terminal and determined by using the foregoing solution is not quite proper; therefore, processing resources of a mobile service information server and communication resources between the mobile service information server and the mobile terminal cannot be effectively used, which causes a waste of resources of a mobile service information system and also affects usage experience of a user.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

To provide a mobile service information display solution that can avoid a waste of resources of a mobile service information system, embodiments of the present invention provide a mobile service information display method, a mobile service information display apparatus, a mobile service information server, a mobile terminal, and a mobile service information system. The following describes exemplary embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings of this specification. It should be understood that the exemplary embodiments described herein are merely used to describe and explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention. In addition, the embodiments of the present application and features in the embodiments may be mutually combined if they do not conflict with each other.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a mobile service information display method. As shown in FIG. 1, the method includes the following steps:

Step 101: Determine mobile service information according to obtained location information of a mobile terminal at a current moment and obtained location information of the mobile terminal within preset duration prior to the current moment.

Step 102: Send the determined mobile service information to the mobile terminal for display.

The mobile service information display method shown in FIG. 1 may be executed by a mobile service information server.

Location information of the mobile terminal may be obtained in multiple manners. Examples are as follows:

In manner 1, the mobile terminal reports location information of the mobile terminal in real time when a location of the mobile terminal changes, that is, obtaining of the location information is implemented by receiving the location information of the mobile terminal reported by the mobile terminal in real time when the location of the mobile terminal changes.

That is, in manner 1, the mobile terminal reports the location information in real time, and the location information may not be locally stored on the mobile terminal.

In manner 2, the mobile terminal reports location information that is of the mobile terminal and within a designated time period when a preset condition is met, that is, obtaining of the location information is implemented by receiving the location information that is of the mobile terminal within the designated time period and reported by the mobile terminal when the preset condition is met, where the designated time period is a time period formed by a current moment and a moment at which the mobile terminal reports location information of the mobile terminal last time.

The foregoing preset condition may be that the mobile terminal accesses a WiFi network, that is, when accessing the WiFi network, the mobile terminal reports the location information that is of the mobile terminal and within the designated time period, which can reduce data traffic of the mobile terminal and reduce tariff overheads. Alternatively, the foregoing preset condition may be that a current moment arrives at a moment at which the mobile terminal reports the location information of the mobile terminal according to a preset period, that is, when the current moment arrives at the moment at which the mobile terminal reports the location information of the mobile terminal according to the preset period, the mobile terminal reports the location information that is of the mobile terminal and within the designated time period, that is, periodically reports the location information of the mobile terminal, which can avoid frequent information reporting of the mobile terminal. It may be learned that the preset condition may be set according to a user requirement, and setting of the foregoing preset conditions is merely exemplary, but is not used to limit the present invention.

That is, in manner 2, the mobile terminal does not report the location information in real time, but needs to locally store the location information that is within the designated time period on the mobile terminal, and may delete the location information after reporting the location information.

Further, step 101 may include:

determining, according to the obtained location information of the mobile terminal at the current moment and the obtained location information of the mobile terminal within the preset duration prior to the current moment, a user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal, and determining, based on a preset correspondence between a user attribute and mobile service information, mobile service information corresponding to the user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal.

The user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal is a current attribute of a user corresponding to the mobile terminal, that is, a current attribute of a user that uses the mobile terminal.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the determined mobile service information may be actively pushed to the mobile terminal, that is, without a need to receive a mobile service information obtaining request sent by the mobile terminal, the determined mobile service information is sent to the mobile terminal for display. Alternatively, in another embodiment of the present invention, after a mobile service information obtaining request sent by the mobile terminal is received, the determined mobile service information is sent to the mobile terminal for display.

That is, correspondingly, an embodiment of the present invention provides a mobile service information display method. As shown in FIG. 2, the method includes the following steps:

Step 201: Report location information of a mobile terminal to a mobile service information server.

Step 202: Receive and display mobile service information sent by the mobile service information server, where the mobile service information is determined by the mobile service information server according to location information of the mobile terminal at a current moment and location information of the mobile terminal within preset duration prior to the current moment.

The mobile service information display method shown in FIG. 2 may be executed by the mobile terminal.

Step 201 that report location information of a mobile terminal to a mobile service information server may be reporting location information of the mobile terminal to the mobile service information server in real time when a location of the mobile terminal changes, or reporting location information of the mobile terminal within a designated time period to the mobile service information server when a preset condition is met, where the designated time period is a time period formed by a current moment and a moment at which location information of the mobile terminal is reported last time.

Further, before the mobile service information sent by the mobile service information server is received, the method may further include: sending a mobile service information obtaining request to the mobile service information server.

With reference to accompanying drawings, by using specific embodiments, the following provides a detailed description of the mobile service information display solution provided in the embodiments of the present invention.

Embodiment 1

FIG. 3 shows a flowchart of a mobile service information display method according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The method includes the following steps:

Step 301: A mobile terminal reports location information of the mobile terminal to a mobile service information server in real time when a location of the mobile terminal changes.

Step 302: The mobile service information server receives the location information reported by the mobile terminal, and determines, according to location information of the mobile terminal at a current moment and location information of the mobile terminal within preset duration prior to the current moment, a user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal.

A length of the preset duration may be set by a user. Generally, a longer preset duration indicates more data samples for analysis, which achieves higher accuracy of the determined user attribute.

During specific implementation, the user may preset a correspondence between a location information characteristic and a user attribute. For determining the user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal, a location information characteristic possessed by location information of the mobile terminal (including the location information of the mobile terminal at the current moment and the location information of the mobile terminal within the preset duration prior to the current moment) is first determined, the preset correspondence between a location information characteristic and a user attribute is queried, and a user attribute corresponding to the location information characteristic possessed by the location information of the mobile terminal is the user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal.

There may be one or more user attributes currently corresponding to the mobile terminal.

The preset correspondence between a location information characteristic and a user attribute may be a one-to-one correspondence, which is shown in the following table:

Location information characteristic User attribute Location information characteristic 1 User attribute 1 Location information characteristic 2 User attribute 2 Location information characteristic 3 User attribute 3 Location information characteristic 4 User attribute 4 . . . . . .

In this case, if the location information of the mobile terminal possesses only one location information characteristic, the mobile terminal is corresponding to one user attribute; if the location information of the mobile terminal possesses multiple location information characteristics, the mobile terminal is corresponding to multiple user attributes.

Alternatively, the preset correspondence between a location information characteristic and a user attribute may not be a one-to-one correspondence, which is shown in the following table:

Location information characteristic User attribute Location information characteristic 1 User attribute 1 Location information characteristic 2 User attribute 2 User attribute 3 Location information characteristic 3 User attribute 4 Location information characteristic 4 User attribute 4 . . . . . .

In this case, regardless of whether the location information of the mobile terminal possesses only one location information characteristic or multiple location information characteristics, the mobile terminal may be corresponding to only one user attribute, or corresponding to multiple user attributes.

During specific implementation, the user may also prescribe a limit that a quantity of finally determined user attributes currently corresponding to the mobile terminal does not exceed a designated quantity. When multiple user attributes currently corresponding to the mobile terminal are determined according to the preset correspondence between a location information characteristic and a user attribute and a quantity of the user attributes exceeds the designated quantity, user attributes in the designated quantity may be selected from the multiple user attributes at random, or user attributes in the designated quantity may be selected according to a preset rule.

Step 303: The mobile terminal sends a mobile service information obtaining request to the mobile service information server.

The mobile service information obtaining request may be triggered by the mobile terminal when the mobile terminal accesses a mobile application or a mobile web page.

Step 304: The mobile service information server receives the mobile service information obtaining request sent by the mobile terminal, and determines mobile service information according to the user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal.

A correspondence between a user attribute and mobile service information may be locally stored on the mobile service information server in advance. When the mobile service information obtaining request sent by the mobile terminal is received, the correspondence between a user attribute and mobile service information is queried to determine the mobile service information corresponding to the user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal.

Further, when the mobile service information obtaining request that is sent by the mobile terminal and received by the mobile service information server carries a required amount of mobile service information, an amount of mobile service information finally determined in step 304 may be determined according to the required amount of mobile service information. The required amount of mobile service information represents a mobile service information display requirement of the mobile terminal.

That is, there may be one or more pieces of mobile service information determined in step 304.

The preset correspondence between a user attribute and mobile service information may be a one-to-one correspondence, which is shown in the following table:

User attribute Mobile service information User attribute 1 Mobile service information 1 User attribute 2 Mobile service information 2 User attribute 3 Mobile service information 3 User attribute 4 Mobile service information 4 . . . . . .

Alternatively, the preset correspondence between a user attribute and mobile service information may not be a one-to-one correspondence, which is shown in the following table:

User attribute Mobile service information User attribute 1 Mobile service information 1 User attribute 2 Mobile service information 2 Mobile service information 3 User attribute 3 Mobile service information 4 User attribute 4 Mobile service information 4 . . . . . .

When multiple pieces of mobile service information are corresponding to the user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal and an amount of the user attributes exceeds the required amount of mobile service information, mobile service information in the required amount of mobile service information may be selected from the multiple pieces of mobile service information at random, or mobile service information in the required amount of mobile service information may be selected according to a preset rule, and the selected mobile service information is used as the mobile service information finally determined in this step. For example, if priorities are set for the multiple pieces of mobile service information, mobile service information with a high priority may be selected.

Alternatively, when a relatively small amount of mobile service information is corresponding to the user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal and does not reach the required amount of mobile service information, mobile service information may be selected from all mobile service information at random, or mobile service information is selected according to a preset rule, so as to make a supplement to the amount and meet the mobile service information display requirement.

Step 305: The mobile service information server sends the determined mobile service information to the mobile terminal.

Step 306: The mobile terminal receives and displays the mobile service information sent by the mobile service information server.

It may be learned that compared with the conventional art, information according to which mobile service information is determined is more comprehensive in the mobile service information display method provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention; therefore, the determined mobile service information can be more proper, which avoids a waste of resources of a mobile service information system, and improves using experience of a user.

The following uses a mobile advertisement as an example to illustrate the mobile service information display method provided in the embodiments of the present invention.

Embodiment 2

FIG. 4 shows a flowchart of a mobile advertisement display method according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. The method includes the following steps:

Step 401: A mobile terminal locally records and stores location information when a location of the mobile terminal changes.

Step 402: The mobile terminal determines whether a current moment arrives at a moment at which the location information is sent according to a preset period.

When it is determined that the current moment arrives at the moment at which the mobile terminal sends the location information according to the preset period, step 403 is to be performed; when it is determined that the current moment does not arrive at the moment at which the mobile terminal sends the location information according to the preset period, step 402 is to be repeatedly performed to perform repeated determining.

Step 403: The mobile terminal sends location information of the mobile terminal within a previous period to a mobile advertisement server.

After the sending, the location information of the mobile terminal within the previous period may be locally deleted.

Step 404: The mobile advertisement server receives the location information reported by the mobile terminal, and determines, according to location information of the mobile terminal at a current moment and location information of the mobile terminal within preset duration prior to the current moment, a user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal.

That is, the mobile advertisement server performs a data analysis of the location information. For example, when the location information of the mobile terminal at the current moment is “Beijing”, and the location information of the mobile terminal within the preset duration prior to the current moment is “Hebei”, it is likely that a user that uses the mobile terminal is on a business trip or a visit to Beijing, and in this case, it may be determined that the user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal is “business trip/travel”.

A correspondence between location information and an attribute may be freely set by a user, and examples are not given herein again.

Step 405: The mobile terminal sends a mobile advertisement obtaining request to the mobile advertisement server.

The mobile advertisement obtaining request may be triggered by the mobile terminal when the mobile terminal accesses a mobile application or a mobile web page.

Step 406: The mobile advertisement server receives the mobile advertisement obtaining request sent by the mobile terminal, and determines a mobile advertisement according to the user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal.

A correspondence between a user attribute and a mobile advertisement may be locally stored on the mobile advertisement server in advance. When the mobile advertisement obtaining request sent by the mobile terminal is received, the correspondence between a user attribute and a mobile advertisement is queried to determine the mobile advertisement corresponding to the user attribute currently corresponding to the mobile terminal.

Assuming that a mobile advertisement corresponding to a user attribute “business trip/travel” in the correspondence between a user attribute and a mobile advertisement is “air ticket booking”, that is, the user attribute that is currently corresponding to the mobile terminal and determined in the example in step 402 is “business trip/travel”, the mobile advertisement determined in step 404 is “air ticket booking”.
